PAPER Box.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letterslatent No. 564,592, dated July 28, 1896.
Application filed July 8, 1895. Serial No. 555,185. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OSEPH T. ORAW, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Jersey City, county of Hudson, State of New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Paper Boxes, of which the following specification is a true and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part thereof.
My invention relates to the construction of paper or pasteboard boxes of the kind known as knockdown boxes, and has for its object to provide a box and box-cover formed integral with each otherand constructed so as to be easily brought to shape, having great strength and rigidity and a finished appearance.
The nature of my improvements will be best understood as described in connection with the drawings in'which they are illustrated, and in which- Figure 1 is a plan view of a blank adapted to the manufacture of my improved boxes in what I consider the most advantageous manner. Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 show progressive steps in the erection of the box from the blank, Figs. 5 and 6 being represented as with one end cut away to better illustrate the folding operation, Fig. 7 representing the completed box with its lid closed down and its end cut away. Fig. 8 is a longitudinal section through the completed box and cover; Fig. 9, a tranverse section; and Figs. 10 and 11, perspective views representing the completed box with its cover raised and closed, respectively.
A indicates the bottom of the box proper, B B the side folds, and E E the end folds thereof, and B B, &c.,indicating extensionlaps of the usual character, which serve to lock the sides together. On each of the end folds E, I form a lap F, and on the front side fold B, I form a corresponding lap 0, side laps F and G turning downward on the lines 4 4 and 15 and lying against the inside of the folds E and B, to which they are attached. I prefer, also, to provide the laps F with terminal laps G, which lie upon the bottom A of the box when it is erected. From the rear side fold B extends a lap H, which forms the top of the box-cover and which is provided with end laps J and terminal folds K and L, corresponding to the folds and laps E, F, and G, extending from the bottom of the box.
Iindicates a side fold, which forms the front of the box-cover, M being a lap which is bent down on the line 11 and lies on the inside of the fold I; N, a lap formed in continuation of the lap M and forming an inner or false top to the box-cover, while 0 is a lap which in forming the box is pressed down against the rear side B of the box proper, D indicating a false or inner bottom to the box, which I preferably form as a continuation to the lap C, but which may be made of a separate piece of paper or, obviously, may be a continuation of the lap O.
The blank may be conveniently manipulated as indicated in Figs. 2 to 6, the side folds B being first bent up perpendicularly on the lines 1 1, as shown in Fig. 2, the end laps B being then bent inward, as shown in dotted lines in the same figure, the end folds E being then bent up on the line 3, the laps F bent down on the line 4, so as to inclose the laps B between E and F, and the terminal laps G pressed down on the bottom of the box, as indicated in Figs. 3 and 4. The fold I is then bent inward at right angles to H on the line 6. The laps I are then bent inward, as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 3 and around the lines 7, the side folds J then bent inward on the lines 8, and the laps K bent inward on the lines 9 to inclose the laps I between J and K, the terminal laps L being in the same manipulation pressed down against the top H of the cover. The lap M is then pressed down on the line 11 until it lies against the fold I, lap N being pressed down over the top H of the 0' cover, and the terminal lap O bent downward on the line 13 until it lies against the'rear side B of the box, as indicated in Figs. 5 and 6. Then the lap O is bent inon the line 15 until it lies against the inside of the front fold B and the terminal lap D is pressed down over the bottom A of the box, serving as an abutment to all of the pieces inside said box, including the lap O. In case an independent false bottom is used, the front lap 0 would I00 naturally be bent to place in the beginning of the manipulation of the box proper, and this would also be true if the inner bottom piece D were formed as an extension of the lap O, as it obviously could be without substantially modifying the character and construction of my box. I prefer, however, even where the inner or false bottom D is not formed as a part of the lap C, to provide such lap with a terminal flange adapted to rest on the bottom A of the box.
The lid or cover of the box is practically hinged on the crease- lines 13 and 14, and it will be obvious that the lid will naturally stand in the position indicated in Figs. 6 and 10, which facilitates the display of goods packed in the box, while at the same time the friction of the double sides of both the box and cover is sufficient to hold the box closed, as shown in Figs. 7 and 11.
I do not in this application claim the construction of the box or cover illustrated and described separately considered, but confine myself to the structure comprising the box and cover hinged together and considered as an article of manufacture in itself, the construction illustrated and described as to the box and cover separately considered forming the subject-matter of my application for Letters Patent, filed July 8, 1895, Serial No. 555,186.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
